The Abia State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, has arrested a 64-year-old man, Nnanna Michael, a native of Obinkita Arochukwu, in connection with the operation of a baby factory and child trafficking in Aba.

Two women identified as Doris Nelson, 23, from Gombe State and Ugochukwu Winner, 21, from Isinweke, lhitte Uboma in Imo State, were rescued from Michael’s residence at Abanafo Street, Ariaria, during the operation on Saturday, September 14, 2024.

Parading the suspect and the women before newsmen, the state Commandant, Usman Alfadarai, said operatives raided the residence following credible intelligence provided to the command.

According to Alfadarai, the investigation revealed that Nelson, who gave birth on Monday, September 9, 2024, sold her baby the following day to a yet-to-be-identified buyer, while Winner is currently seven months pregnant and was being held under similar circumstances.

“In his confessional statement, Michael, a father of four and a former worker at a motherless home, admitted to harbouring pregnant women, taking care of them until delivery, and then selling their babies," the commandant stated.

“Michael revealed that Doris Nelson was introduced to him by a contact from Abuja named Miracle, who brought her to his residence in Aba. After giving birth to a baby girl, Michael sold the baby for N1.1 million, promising Doris N500,000, of which she had already received N100,000.

“Further investigations revealed that Winner was introduced to Michael by Evangelist First Samuel, who resides in Aba but is now at large. The agreement was for Michael to purchase the baby after delivery and sell it to his potential buyers.

“Preliminary investigations further reveal that Michael has been in this illicit business for a long time, where he has been leveraging his contacts from his previous work experience at a motherless home to find both buyers and sellers. Michael admitted to selling one baby last year and two babies this year before his arrest”

"Upon the conclusion of our investigation, Al-Fadarai said, the case will be transferred to the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, which is statutorily empowered to prosecute these offences, adding that the court will determine further course of action. According to him. Michael is living in a rented apartment and the landlord claimed ignorant of what Michael was doing and even cooperated with the agency in the exercise.

“On this note, we would like to make it very clear, that the NSCDC Abia State Command is committed to uncovering all individuals involved in this syndicated operation and we will continue to pursue Mr. Michael’s accomplices as we remain resolute in bringing all the perpetrators of these heinous crimes to justice and ensuring we put an end to such practices”, he said.

He called on parents to take responsibility for the proper upbringing of their children, as this case showcases the failure of some families in safeguarding their children from such criminal elements.

“We equally urge members of the general public to be vigilant and provide us with credible intelligence of any suspicious activities within their surroundings”, he urged Abians.

Confessing to the crime, Michael Nnanna, a pool agent said, “I was keeping some girls in my house for their health and one is pregnant, so that after the birth, I will sell the baby. I have regretted this as it is not a good job to do.”

One of the women, Miss Doris Nelson, said she lives in Abuja as a Baker, adding that her parents do not know about her pregnancy.

"When I was pregnant, I went to someone who directed me to Aba”, stating that her parents do not know about her pregnancy, while

On her part, Miss Ugochukwu Winner, who said she lives at Ariaria Junction, Aba, said the mother of her classmate linked her up with the suspect.

CyrusVI, EmperorCaesar,

kedeojo:
was oshiomole a bad leader. Am so sure that he performed more than your state governor during Thier time. Pls tell us your governor then and the current one or just your state cos we can verify. Oshiomole's foot print ranging from education, health, road, transportation and beautification were visible during his time as governor. What has been handsome comes to do with performances. Seriously children are now too much on this app or will I say adult with child reasoning.

It's a psychological problem enabled by this bigoted nairaland that every discussion is reduced to Yoruba vs Igbo.

Nairaland is the worst forum in the entire earth with Seun being an enabler of bigotry in its highest form.

Now he's become a tyrant that he is preventing everyone from deactivating their account.

If you're educated enough, you would know that diplomatic immunity covers him in such events
Same thing happened to Mugabe despite travel bans, he travelled to all UN summits without harassment

How will you kidnap a 5 yrs old girl in broad daylight.... Cowards everywhere

Simon Ekpa on the beat. Only Federal government and Abike Dabiri knows why they are not after that guy but were fast to track down the woman from Canada.

Simon Ekpa is a criminal. Ọ bụ onye oshi and he's profiting from the security and economic situation in the East, and there's no reason to doubt that the present government is his enablers or feel good about his activities

WeddingParol:
You guys are free to celebrate whatever it is so long as you didn't disturb the public peace.

Conversely, what made this event celebrated in Lagos instead of the east?

I hope it is not due to UGM?
